Scripting engine - Create new building blocks for workflows, as well as for other actions and policies, using a JavaScript-based scripting engine that offers basic version control, variable type-checking, name space management and exception handling.

Centralized access - Keep scripts and process-related primitives in a single location to ensure proper change control across the environment and to avoid releasing scripts without versioning.

Export Workflows - Collaborate content across the team by directly exporting workflows to a file system and saving them in a repository.

Open, Flexible Architecture
